We went camping for our Young Commited Couples Group over the weekend of my birthday. It was an awesome time to connect with one another. God is really changing us in an awesome way and it was definetly revealed to us there. As life takes its crazy turns and I get closer and closer to God, I start to see that we are dealing with things that we can't deal with on our own. Every situation that I thought was too difficult or that I wasn't going to get through it, I did and I will with his strength!

Ariana started Kindergarten on September 5th. There are four kindergarten classes at her school. She was so excited to be with one of her friends, Skyler from pre-school!

We had a day at the lake/ocean on Saturday with our 20 something bible study group. We had a contest between the guys and girls to see who could get the canoe the farthest across the inlet w/o sinking. Of course the girls won!!! The other game was to see who could build the tallest and most creative sand castle. Yusef & Jeff won that one! The girls had a blast and we had so much fun playing volleyball. I love how tall I look on that block, even though it was a really short net!

Last night we had a family night at our church. They were doing a skit about Esther and asked the girls whose first name started with the letter A to come on stage. Ariana is the little one!!!

We got a babysitter from church and had a date night last night with one of our bible study groups, YCCG (Young Committed Couples Group). We went to the Ocean City boardwalk and ate pizza, went mini-golfing and acted like kids again at the beach! It was so much fun!

One of the Pastors from our church called me and asked if the girls could use a play kitchen. It was donated to the church, but we already have three of them so they gave it to us! It is a huge Little Tykes kitchen and it came with pots & pans, dishes, food and silverware! The first thing that Ariana said was, "Now that is a blessing!" It is so awesome to hear her praising God and understanding that it truly was a blessing!!!
